Epson R-D1x digital Rangefinder released

"The retro body is a rangefinder camera, which means manual focusing using the matched images familiar to anyone who has used a film rangefinder. It even takes Leica lenses, making it a passable alternative to Leicaâ€šÃ„Ã´s own M8, and cheaper at $3000. Weirdly, Epson hasnâ€šÃ„Ã´t upped the pixel-count of the CCD sensor â€šÃ„Ã® it still holds just 6MP. This could either be fantastic news (a new, ultra low-light sensor) or terrible (old, 2006 technology)."
